Case advice

Our highly experienced Bridge Referral team investigates and treats an extensive range of medical and surgical conditions. We strive to deliver the highest standards of care and compassion to our patients.

As part of our ethos to have a close working relationship with our referring practices, we offer a free advice service to veterinarians. This is independent from referral and can include case discussions, interpretations of radiographs and CT, or blood work up. We value our referring vets and are happy to help with some of those tricky cases, that sometimes just need a fresh pair of eyes or a more experienced hand.

Diagnostic imaging

Diagnostic Imaging is a core service, supporting all other referral services as most of our patients will require some form of imaging. Depending on which part of the patient we need to take a closer look at, we will use these different imaging modalities. This equipment can facilitate a quick and accurate diagnosis of your pet’s condition, which can help speed up treatment when we know what condition/disease process we are dealing with. Read more
